Living Room. Thursday , March 15th , 2018 - 03:05:06 AM
Carefully placed mirrors not only offer a unique approach to home decor, but can also make a smaller living room look larger. By arranging the angles of reflection of a number of mirrors, you can not only make the best of the more interesting components of your living room décor, but also make the room appear much large than it is. You can use lighting along with mirrors to enhance this effect.
Modern homes tend to be bright and airy, and while you don't have to be exactly minimalist in your choice of living room furniture, you will not want to lose that sense of space by over-furnishing. It is very easy to do this, particularly when you consider the wide range of living room furniture available today. Let's have a brief look at the range of furniture you can use in your lounge.
Enlarge Your Living Room with Mirrors
Make your selection of furniture, choose rugs to suit your overall decorative theme, and then the lamps, mirrors and other accent pieces. You can put all of these together to create a fabulous living room. A holistic approach to living room furniture involves more than just furnishing, but also an appreciation of accessories an accent pieces such as occasional tables, curio cabinets, rugs and more - but it is well worth the work involved.
Task Lighting- Use table lamps or free standing lamps for working on individual projects such as a puzzle, game, paper, crocheting or other hobby. Ideally, living room lamps should be set slightly behind and to the left or right of the area being illuminated so the light can come from behind the person's shoulder and pour light on towards the project at hand. Use smaller track lighting fixtures or other low-level lighting agents for computers and television viewing. This avoids glare and allows the screen its proper image display.
Accents & Highlighting- Draw attention to a fireplace with overhead recessed lighting or track lighting fixtures. Alternatively, wall sconces on either side of the mantel will both emphasize the fireplace and offer more lighting for the entire room. An up light situated behind the object can highlight pedestals, figurines or floor plants. Add additional layers with multi-tiered hanging lamps or wall/ceiling wash lights. Accent lights placed in alcoves, corners or closed in spaces will accentuate a specific area or piece and give the room a larger appearance.
